@TheKuhnerReport This State House is doing the same thing as our Federal Government is doing, this is the same concept that all the MA bleeding heart liberals complain about…. go figure.. ignore the will of the people. Independent power take our state back…

[Jeff Kuhner @TheKuhnerReport]

Wake up MA voters! Democrats in the state House just passed H. 5469. It essentially negates the 2024 ballot initiative passed by 72% of voters demanding an audit of the state Legislature. Dems are refusing to allow an audit. They're covering up their corruption & fraud! #mapoli

Jacoby Hogencamp seals Knights’ trip to the D1 state quarterfinals.

Rocky Vankowski’s 2-run HR in the 5th was the difference.

Hogencamp (5.1 IP, 3 H, 0 ER, 9 Ks) was electric in relief.

Wake-up call to every Massachusetts voter who still believes they’ll get the independent Legislature audit they demanded if they keep supporting the same Democrats who are blocking it.

State Auditor Diana DiZoglio posted this statement yesterday about the latest proposed bill:
“With this proposed bill & under the guise of transparency, your state reps are not only throwing the 72% voter-mandated law in the dumpster - they’re taking a match & lighting that dumpster on fire, violating the People’s constitutional rights & undermining democracy.”

The bill is House Bill H.5469. It was unveiled Tuesday by House Democratic leadership and is scheduled for a House vote today. It would limit the State Auditor’s audit of the Legislature to only four narrow categories of administrative functions: budgets, audits, expenditures of appropriated funds, and monetary settlement agreements while giving legislative leaders new controls over interviews and the process.

More than likely, this will be a party-line vote: Democrats pushing the bill through to restrict the full audit, while Republicans vote against it, consistent with their long-standing support for enforcing the voter-approved law exactly as written.

DiZoglio recently endorsed Evan MacKay, a self-described democratic socialist and Boston DSA-endorsed candidate, for the open 25th Middlesex District State Representative seat in Cambridge.

When will mass auditor realize that her party is not the party of transparency and support Republicans that are?

[Brian Shortsleeve for Massachusetts @ShortsleeveMA]

The people voted for a full audit. Not a partial audit. Not a politician-approved audit. A full audit.

Nothing has changed. The Legislature is still trying to avoid fulfilling the will of the voters. 72% of Massachusetts voters demanded transparency. Beacon Hill's response? More loopholes. More carveouts. More games.

If they have nothing to hide, why are they working so hard to keep auditors out?

[Fall River Reporter @FallRiverReport]

Despite Auditor Diana DiZoglio's disappointment, the Massachusetts House passed a controversial bill (125-28) limiting the scope of a voter-approved legislative audit and creating new public records rules — with just three Democrats joining Republicans in voting no. All New Bedford State Reps, Christopher Hendricks, Antonio F. D. Cabral, Christopher M. Markey, and Mark D. Sylvia, voted yes. @DianaDiZoglio @massauditor

[Chester Tam @islantstudio]

No bill would be needed in Massachusetts if there was nothing to hide.

The Massachusetts House passed controversial bill H 5469, gutting the voter approved 2024 legislative audit and rewriting public records rules, with zero public hearing and barely 24 hours for anyone to even read it.

The final vote was 125-28.
Vast majority of Democrats voted yes.
Only three Democrats voted NO: Reps. Michael Connolly, Steve Hawkins, and Alan Silvia.

As Rep. Connolly said: “I mean, the headline almost writes itself, right? ‘Legislature passes transparency bill out of the cover of darkness.’”

The Governor’s office, Legislature, AND Judiciary are all exempt from public records laws. This bill gives the Governor’s office some access… while the Legislature keeps protecting itself from real oversight.

Look, the only way we’re ever going to get the full audit we voted for is to start replacing every single one of them who voted for this garbage.

As I stated yesterday, this vote went almost entirely along party lines. I would have been another vote against this bill.

[Juanito Bandito @bandito_juanito]

Anyone in Massachusetts that voted for the Audit needs to contact your State Rep and Senator NOW. The house just passed out of committee H.5469, which allows the Legislature to decide what they have to hand the Auditor, while also denying our right to go to court to challenge it.

[Fall River Reporter @FallRiverReport]

"I'm so deeply disturbed by what I'm witnessing in the State House. I just got word that the House of Representatives is getting ready to pass a bill into law that essentially negates everything that you voted for in the 2024 ballot question to have my office conduct an audit of the legislator and have some independent oversight." - Massachusetts State Auditor Diana DiZoglio @DianaDiZoglio @massauditor

@GlobeSchools Looks like that’s it for Bumila as he gets out of the fifth with a grounder to third.

5 IP, 85 pitches (57 strikes), 0 runs, 1 hit, 3 BBs, and 12 strikeouts for the big lefty of his day is done.

It's fair to say that the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court was skeptical of the Attorney General's plan to keep a decision regarding the constitutionality of @massauditor's efforts to audit the State Legislature out of the courts.

I think a win is coming for Madame Auditor.
